AI will drive me away from smartphones. I currently have an iPhone 12 Pro Max, and have been considering upgrading to a 17 Pro Max when they are released. But frankly, only for the camera. Maybe it’s time to return to the simpler world of the flip phone or other non “smart” phone & buy a camera.

This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4

Journalists ignored his well-documented history & wrote flattering articles about him. He’s doing the same shit he has for 40 YEARS. Did you actually think he’d stop being an anti-science profiteer? Of course not. Now he’s got the power and authority of the Federal government behind him. 2/
